Lincoln Christmas Market Special Trains - 2011

Thank you. It would be great to see the rail blue set attached. You don't see that much these days. Deltics did haul some awful coaches in their heyday. I remember traveling behind a deltic and feeling quite unsafe when the Mk 1 coach we were in began shaking from side to side quite alarmingly once we got over 60mph!

RSG the cream of the crop second to none, id much rather have fleets of deltics than any of todays rubbish, but i wish they would put some decent stock with her on the railtours, like them pullman coaches, thanks nice vid especially the deltic

Thanks mate. I don't get to the station regularly but do enjoy making videos when there is some interesting action. I can't understand why longer platforms were not designed into the remodelling a few years ago in the light of the new services from EMT and East Coast. Perhaps someone will enlighten us . . .

Brilliant video! I live in Lincoln and this shows some of what I missed as I couldn't get to the station. Definitely need longer platforms though.

I was on the footbridge that goes over the railway from the Tentercroft Street car park. I always use that now as station staff are very twitchy when special trains are due. Pelham road bridge is very good for some shots but you do get a lot of traffic noise if you are using a camcorder.

I reckon I'm the figure on the left by the lampost bending down at 07:30. I was putting my camera away!

Excellent video.

Was that the footbridge you took pics and video from? I was on the tour and took some shots from the road bridge.

I'm amongst the people seen at 06:00, but I can't pick myself out. :-)
